Eternal Life by Daily Divination
Chapter 620 - 307: Five Poisons Master, Zi Yun Admits Her Mistake"Daoist Wu, aren’t you worried that Li Chang’an poisoned the Elixir Pills?"
Zi Yun’s words were cold and her attitude unyielding. She refused to accept the Elixir Pills no matter what.
If it weren’t for this sudden turn of events, she would have killed Li Chang’an long ago.
’How could I possibly take his Elixir Pills?’
She offered a well-intentioned reminder, "Daoist Wu, Loose Cultivators like Li Chang’an have always been unscrupulous. Don’t trust him so easily."
"This..."
Wu Shuo looked completely helpless.
He silently put the Storage Pouch away and didn’t mention the Elixir Pills again.
’Zi Yun is the Zi Xi Saintess’s younger sister. The Treasures in her Storage Pouch must be far more numerous than mine. Perhaps she really doesn’t need these Elixir Pills.’
The atmosphere was extremely strange for the rest of their journey.
The three of them barely spoke.
Li Chang’an’s expression was composed, showing little change as he walked calmly through the dense poison mist.
Wu Shuo, on the other hand, was full of anxiety, worriedly memorizing the path they had taken.
Soon, he noticed that Zi Yun’s complexion was growing worse and worse.
Seven days later, Zi Yun seemed to have used up all the Treasures in her Storage Pouch that could restore Magical Power. The Magical Power surrounding her grew thinner and thinner.
"Why isn’t it over yet?"
She clenched her teeth, her face gradually turning pale.
Before long, her Magical Power was nearly depleted.
She no longer had the strength to resist the poison mist assailing her from all sides and had to resort to consuming an Antitoxic Treasure, struggling to hold on.
「Two days later.」
The Antitoxic Treasure in Zi Yun’s Storage Pouch was also depleted.
But the poison mist was still endless, and there was no end in sight to the road ahead.
Her face was deathly pale, and a sense of despair grew in her heart.
A moment later, she suddenly swayed. Unable to hold on any longer, she collapsed to the ground.
"Daoist Zi!"
Wu Shuo’s expression changed drastically, and he hurried forward to check on her.
He saw that Zi Yun’s lips were purple and her arms were covered in a dense network of purplish-blue veins. She was clearly deeply poisoned.
If she didn’t receive treatment, she would soon die here.
Wu Shuo was frantic.
As a Guest Elder of the Sect serving the Zi Xi Saintess, he couldn’t just stand by and watch her sister die.
In his haste, he cast aside his reservations.
He immediately took out the Antitoxic Pill Li Chang’an had given him, dissolved it with his Magical Power, and transferred the medicinal energy into Zi Yun’s Meridians.
After a moment, the signs of Zi Yun’s poisoning gradually faded, and she regained consciousness.
"Daoist Wu, thank you..."
She suddenly saw the Elixir Pill in Wu Shuo’s hand, and her feelings grew complicated.
The very thing that had saved her life was an Elixir Pill refined by Li Chang’an.
Her earlier suspicions were clearly wrong.
Not only were these Elixir Pills not poisonous, but they were also extremely effective against the surrounding mist.
Wu Shuo sent a quiet Sound Transmission: "Daoist Zi, if you want to find out the real reason for Daoist Ye’s death, you can’t die here. You have to do whatever it takes to get out alive."
Zi Yun sighed softly. "I understand."
Wu Shuo added, "The Elixir Pills refined by Daoist Li are our only hope of getting out of here alive."
As he spoke, he handed over a Storage Pouch.
Inside the Storage Pouch were all sorts of Tier Three Elixirs refined by Li Chang’an.
The old Zi Yun would have stubbornly told him to take it away.
But now, she said nothing, accepting the Storage Pouch in silence with a storm of mixed feelings in her heart.
「In the days that followed.」
Relying on Li Chang’an’s Elixir Pills, Zi Yun recovered to her normal state and began using various methods to investigate her surroundings.
"Daoist Wu, I feel like something isn’t right. The poison mist seems to be deliberately targeting us. I’m afraid someone is controlling all of this from the shadows."
"Daoist Zi, Daoist Li just shared that same suspicion with me."
"Li Chang’an? He..."
Zi Yun’s expression was complicated as she glanced at Li Chang’an.
The only reason she’d noticed something was wrong was because she had used a Treasure given to her by Zi Xi.
’How could Li Chang’an see that something was amiss?’
Zi Yun wanted to go and ask him.
However, she had soured their relationship too much before.
Though she wanted to speak now, she was too proud to do so, and could only let countless questions churn in her mind.
Wu Shuo saw what she was thinking and immediately ran ahead to Li Chang’an’s side.
"Daoist Li, Daoist Zi shares your suspicion. Do you know who is controlling all this from the shadows?"
"Ye Sang."
Li Chang’an’s tone was flat as he uttered the name.
Hearing this, Wu Shuo was stunned.
Li Chang’an had already killed Ye Sang, reducing him to a pile of minced flesh. How could he possibly have come back to life to deal with them?
"Daoist Li, are you sure?"
"Yes. The Ye Sang I killed earlier was likely just a clone."
"A cloning technique..."
Wu Shuo was lost in thought.
A moment later, he returned to Zi Yun’s side and relayed what Li Chang’an had said.
Zi Yun was also astonished and found it hard to accept.
"It can’t be Daoist Ye!"
She shook her head slightly, denying it.
"Even if Daoist Ye were still alive, with his kind-hearted nature, he would never move against us."
The words had barely left her mouth.
A young man’s voice suddenly rang out from the depths of the poison mist.
"Haha, Daoist Zi, you really do trust me."
"What?"
Zi Yun shuddered, an expression of disbelief appearing on her face as she stared into the depths of the mist.
All three of them were very familiar with that voice.
It was Ye Sang!
"Daoist Ye, what’s going on?"
Wu Shuo shouted, his heart filled with vigilance.
Recalling what Li Chang’an had said earlier, he had a growing sense of foreboding.
The next instant, the surroundings suddenly changed.
The poison mist receded, and everything around them became clear.
Only then did Wu Shuo and Zi Yun realize they were in a valley.
On the cliff faces on both sides of the valley were rows of strange hanging coffins.
A rough count suggested there were at least ten thousand of them!
Inside every coffin was a purplish-blue Poisonous Corpse slowly emitting a dark green corpse toxin.
"A Land of Corpse Nourishment."
Li Chang’an remained relatively calm. His eyes swept over the hanging coffins before finally settling on what lay ahead.
